Marketing perfection! Received exactly as described, better to be honest! Packaged securly and arrived as indicted. And, what a LOVELY purchasing note attached w/a gift! So very thoughtful! Thank you! I absolutely would recommend this seller and I will be a repeat customer! Thanks so much! Additionally, I had been searching for a 1st Ed/HC of this specific title (for awhile), that wouldn’t cost me a kidney! Thank you for negotiating a fair price! I cannot wait to dive into this read!

  • Too much

    You can't say enough about the integrity of Patagonia. Or can you? I have heard wonederfull comments about this book and perhaps it's just my expectations were too high. The ideals expressed here are lofty and worth striving for.
